Oh good lord, at last, you have no idea how thankful I am to have found a channel that explains things clearly but in great detail, uses a tripod, doesn't indulge in anit-social behaviour and doesn't deliberately smash the living daylights out of vehicles that most people would have to work half a year to be able to afford. Great videos, great content, great presentation, keep up the tremendous work, will now binge watch everything, many thanks and bravo!!!
Oh wow thanks. And here’s me thinking the talking head no multiple angle stuff might get boring :) I do have a habit of smashing trucks up, but generally because I get carried away and always keep it off camera as I know it’s not something really want to see
@@JustScalin It's spot on, really refreshing approach, so nice not to feel motion sick after watching an RC based video. Your channel's going to be massive, hope you enjoy every moment of making content!
I've always run my shocks vertically. For no good reason, really. Just was familiar with how my truck handles in that configuration. This video has me thinking about trying them layed down.
I found this video very useful, I’ve been trying to dial in these YR desert lizards (100mm) on my gen 8 axe. It’s a got a little bit of weight up front not much but I was trying to get it to where it has maximum articulation but was setting all the way down maxed out full droop cause it left me with literally no spring left. It was like riding without shocks. The only travel was if the wheel fell down. So I went up in the spring weight and now it’s sitting about where you said 50/50 I got some spring left for bumps and plants of flex so I think it’s gonna work here for now.
I know this is crazy but I use the lightest springs you can get to set the ride height. Then I use 2,000 weight shock out to slow the shock down and keep it from unloading. Works like internal springs. Different approach with the same results.
Oh wow that’s definitely a different approach. Damping video is out next week and covers conventional damping. I might have to take a look at your idea of super light springs and thick oil.

I do, and hearing stuff like this makes it awesome
Great video and new sub. I’m new to 1/18 crawlers and these adjustments are super pronounced. Torque twist management especially
To the point, clear, informative, and fun, thank you !
Thank you!
Thank you , you helped me a Lot With your Videos. Very Amateur friendly 👍
Best crawler Channel
Very well explained!
Thank you, no need to watch any other vids now.👌
Glad it was helpful!
I think you just improved my gen 8 like crazy
Awesome!
Super clear and helpful. Thanks so much :)
You're very welcome!

It’s all about experimentation. I’ve found the fronts laid down more than the rear does help with rates

Awesome, glad I could help. 100mm is a very long shock so I’d probably say 60% droop would be good to lower the cog and still have some spring?
Very helpful video! thanks!
great information sir! I would love to know more!
Hopefully my damping video helped too? I’m going to try and do a shortend version of link geometry soon as that’s helped me a lot

Very good videos, keep up the great work
Thanks!
Another great video!!
Great video well explained
Thank you!
Very helpful!
Thanks!
Love your videos, and I'm an expert crawler!
Amazing, thank you!
Thanks i needed this
You’re welcome, happy to have helped
No live stream?
I’m not sure what you mean?
@@JustScalin In youtube you can do a live stream
I know, but this was a random comment with no context.
